Shifter
Shifters are a humanoid species from Keranov who exhibit bestial traits. They are able to enhance these aspects; growing thicker skin, sharper teeth, or long claws. While shifters can modify how bestial they appear, very few can pass as human with the eyes often being the giveaway.
Keranov has a history of lycanthropy, and shifters have long been persecuted due to a perceived connection. Despite no evidence of shifters losing control of themselves or passing on their traits, they are shunned from most towns in Keranov and instead live in their own settlements in forests and mountains. A small number chose to leave Keranov when the opportunity arose, travelling to other areas of Dunyalem where there is no stigma.
